Hi Guys/Gals

May be acquiring this short bed in a couple of weeks and pretty excited about it. I've owned 60-66 C10s since my teens but this will be my first squarebody. Its a 350/350, pretty decent body, engine turns freely, normal wear and tear. It belonged to an older gentleman from the neighborhood I grew up in and I've seen it sitting there for years. My Dad owned a '76 so I'm partial to the round-eye squares. Not sure what I'll do with it yet but I ain't letting it slip through my fingers! LOL

Re: New addition

Make sure the first thing you do after lifting that straight hood is oil all the hinge pivot points. Otherwise you will soon have the dreaded square body bent hood.

Looks like it should clean up nice after all of the tree goo is washed off.

Yes Sir,

Pretty familiar with that after doing a few LS swaps into square bodies. The hood on this one is straight and I plan on keeping it that way!
